REVIEW: 2003 Sicilia Cantine Colosi
This is the dude I'm sippin' on right now as I catch up on the blog. And hey, I'm happy that this one is what I'm relaxing with tonight.
As can be expected, from what I can tell about Euro wines, this one isn't fruit first. But that said, this is a very, very drinkable wine. Well balanced, not heavy in body, minimal tannins, and a nice dark red hue. The flavor? Earthy, maybe leathery (there is something I taste that's not "normal" to me), with a bright fruit finish. I surely want another bottle of this for later! And at $12, it's well worth it.
The bouquet is pleasant. Sniffing it makes you want to dive right in and drink.
Hey! And The Sopranos is on! Goomba wine while watching a Goomba show. Gotta love it!
